Harrison.

It was a pleasure to meet August again, but at the same time unpleasant. Eleanor's ex? Why'd I never asked of her ex in the first place? Their old band might reunite and affect my plans for Eleanor. Practically, I should be the least concerned about whatever Eleanor does.

I tried keeping a smile while I chatted with August. Although he wanted to see Eleanor once more, I just couldn't allow it. Augustine left a few hours later.

Eleanor was in the kitchen when August left. Judging from the delicious smell emanating from the oven, she was baking bread. I stood up and sat on the long oak table where the servants dined every night. I peeped at her and found her stretching her hands to the hearth's blaze. She was wet and drenched when she entered the house, which made me worry that she had caught a cold.

I scoffed to grab her attention. " Do you mind telling me the story?" I asked her. She didn't give me attention, not even the slightest glance. She looked provoked but she wasn't

    EleanorI was going to grab my towel in my room after having a hot bath, but I decided to fill myself with scented oil first. The scent trailed my mind off from the thought of having a cold and fake husband to having a nice time with him in bed. I smiled out of the bathroom with my naked body filled with oil to meet a very unexpected shock. I was stiff as I saw Mr. Harrison staring at me a few inches from my table. The shock in his eyes couldn’t beat mine. “ Mr. Harrison- “ I couldn’t speak again as I tried to cover my body with my hands which was a very stupid thing to do in that position. I wasn’t sure what Mr Harrison was thinking but I was waiting for him to turn away or something.As if he heard my thought, he turned his back and faced the other side. I am sure he saw me flush, although I wasn't sure if it was from embarrassment or admiration. I quickly took a towel and wrapped it over my body.He scoffed, a way of asking if I was done with whatever I was doing. “ Mr Harrison.

    EleanorThe drive was cool, Jay played perfect by Ed Sheeran and we exchanged glances through the mirror above his head. Mr Harrison on the other hand was looking outside the window. The car was soundproof and only the music was playing.My gown was a little uncomfortable so I had to shift to Mr Harrison's side to adjust my corset. This was too much for an evening, I looked like Cinderella. My shifting was just a little, almost as if I didn't move at all.Mr Harrison extended an arm around my neck, drew me closer to himself and patted my shoulder. " Are you feeling any discomfort of any kind?" My heartbeat raced, my body was too close to his. His body felt like a rock and he smelled like me. I gulped and nodded. I loved this version of him. My excitement grew bigger knowing the night is going to be long. I tried to move away but his grip was tight. " Let us stay this way." His voice was calm, perhaps the calmest I've heard from him. I rested my head on his shoulder and drowned mysel

    EleanorMr. Harrison grabbed my waist as he kissed me passionately on the stage. Everything disappeared around me and all I could see was myself with Mr Harrison in a sacred wheel of love. I parted my lips and kissed him back. All the hard days I had with him, all the arguments and the bossy days… I let them all slip away with my ocean of worries.The kiss was simple and intimate, at least that was what I felt. Mr. Harrison slowly pulled away and looked at me. He turned to the people who looked surprised and confused at the same time. My gaze was on Mr. Harrison till I heard the sound of claps.I blinked and focused back on the crowd. I managed to smile, even when my stomach was filled with butterflies.“ That is enough as proof. And we both have our rings on. I hope my union would clear most of your doubts and convince you that I am not gay.” The people laughed but I didn’t find it funny. There has to be a reason why he is doing all of these. “ I love you,” he whispered that to me b

    Eleanor I slowly awakened from my short slumber, or so it seemed. I felt a slight headache and a little bit of dizziness. I raised my head up in an attempt to figure out where I was but my vision was still blurry. I blinked hard and navigated where I was. I was alone in a dark room with a lit candle as the only source of light. The room smelled of wet rusted iron. It looked old and deserted. I thought it could be used for a horror movie. I tried standing up then I realized I was tied down to a chair. I hissed in frustration. I tried to Frey the rope without making noise. I wasn't ready to call my abductors around and spread the message that I was awake. But they knew already. “ Darling, you're awake. It was about time.” It was a voice I could never forget. Not in this lifetime. The place looked haunted and old and it was dead silent. August's voice echoed when he spoke. I looked at him in disgust. Was he so cowardly that he couldn't come to me in a more apparent way? I tried going a

    HarrisonThe music was smooth and people were dancing around. Dancing wasn't really my thing and I doubted Eleanor would know how to dance either. A lot of people had bothered me already, Eleanor must have been sick of them, perhaps that's why she was nowhere in sight. Or maybe she's with her lover. I rested on the wall beside the main door. I didn't want to ruin my habiliment anymore.I checked the time and wondered if Eleanor ran away already. At least the world already knows her as my wife, the news would get to Serena soon. “ Hi…..sir,” Emil said as he barged in from the door beside me. There was restraint present in his voice as he spoke and he didn't look so pleased to see me. “ Can we talk outside for a minute?”It was surprising and I was really inquisitive about whatever he wanted to talk about. He went outside without waiting for me to reply him. He looked more fierce than when I first met him with Eleanor. I followed him and met him outside with a hand in his pocket and a

    HarrisonIt was a rough drive back home. With Eleanor still unconscious in the back seat, my mind and body couldn't settle. I don't even know if she's still alive. I pulled over at the front of the main door when I got home. I was so fast to a halt, my car screeched. I hurriedly carried Eleanor out and took her to my room. " Helena!!!!" I called out. Eleanor's temperature was high, and I disregarded the fact that she was totally naked. I placed her on my bed and sat next to her. I tapped her cheek continuously and mildly. " Eleanor! Fucking wake up!"I used my finger to find her pulse from her wrist. Even though I didn't know how exactly it was done, I was a bit relieved that it was beating. Her body was hot, almost heating. What in the universe did August do to her?Helena ran inside and covered her mouth when we saw the state Eleanor was in. Helena checked Eleanor's body and eyes with her mouth. She was the closest we have to first aid in the house." Sir…I think she was injected.

    EleanorI woke up from a very bad nightmare. I rolled on my bed from left to right. Perhaps because of the nightmare I had, I was being delusional. The bed seemed harder and larger than mine but I was probably just wondering.The sun started peeking over the houses through the window and highlighted the beauty of the room. This wasn't my bed, nor was it my room. Several servants were working outside, their boots hitting the strong wood of the house. The door was opened and I saw Mr Harrison with a bunch of servants. They all gathered around him. After a minute, they started heading towards me as a group.I yawned openly. Amongst the group of servants were Helena and Susan. They looked worried and rushed to me first. " My lady, are you okay? Are you wounded?" Helena asked." I'm fine. Perfectly fine. What's the occasion? Why am I here? Did something happen to me again?" I inquired." No," Susan burst, " you looked pale yesterday but you seem fine. What would you like for breakfast? Th

    EleanorGradually, I walked close to Mr. Harrison. Candy and Jay dispatched, both their cheeks burning red from embarrassment. " This is my old friend Candy. Candy, meet my husband." I introduced. I wasn't sure how Mr Harrison was going to react but I was trying my best to make him act calm and nice.Candy cleared her throat and straightened her suit. She walked to Mr. Harrison and extended her hand. " Good evening Mr. Tolstoy. It's nice to meet you." To my surprise, Mr. Harrison shook her hand. He came further in and sat on the couch. I sat beside him, waiting for Candy and Jay who were both standing together." Erm…I was just leaving, Mr Harrison. I'll see you next time." Candy said in haste. " Why the rush? I just got here. Do you mind staying the night? I have a lot of room and I assure you, you would enjoy it. Come, have a seat." Mr. Harrison said.Candy exchanged glances with Jay then she looked at me. I nodded slightly and she came to sit across us. " Jay …where do you think yo

    The sound of "Here comes the bride" echoed through the church of St Paul. A lot of people were seated in the church, waiting for the bride to come around. Eleanor was in the changing room, fighting her corset with Lina."Damn, this is tight. I could have chosen a much better dress. All in the name of fashion. What if I fail to breathe and I faint in front of my husband? Ish.""If you fail to breathe, I will pour you water. Just in case.""Emill," Lina warned."What? Have you forgotten what she did to me on our wedding day? She hid my tie and made me use a bow tie.""And it was perfect but you don't trust your best friend. That is what is wrong with you. Anyway, if you pour me water, you would owe me 5 million dollars. I would collect it from you. I know you know that.""Eleanor, you still want to bully me on your wedding day? Jeez. People change, why didn't you?" Someone knocked on the door and Emil went to pick it up. "You're not supposed to see your bride before the wedding. They s

    Writer's POVHarrison went back to his hotel and tried to think about what he could do for Eleanor. It was a hard task. He knew Eleanor wouldn't just agree to see him just like that. There was nothing he could think of buying that would be catchy to her.He went to bed, hoping the next day would be very good.*** Eleanor walked back and forth to the room. "Again, who invited Harrison? This isn't a joke. Why would one of you invite Harrison without my permission? Why?"Her mother sat on a chair, knitting stockings. "As much as I hate the boy, he still looks handsome. Did you ask him the type of cream he was using?""Mother, this is not funny. Do you know how I felt when I saw him? I was going to lose my mind. Why would you do such things behind my back?"No one was answering her. She sat in the chair, frustratingly shaking her leg. "Well, I think he's a changed person. I heard he built a house for orphans on the streets. It is also said that he is a good man and he let out all his slav

    Writer's POVHe held the child's hands and looked around as she led him to a hallway. "Magny? Where are you? Come out now. We have a visitor, he says he bears annoying Harry's name."Harrison laughed. The child was something. He found the plastic horse on the ground. He bent down and showed her the toy. Tada" "Yay! You found Magny." She hugged him. That was when Harrison perceived it. "Thank you, Uncle Harrison. I'll see you later, okay?" She said and ran off. He stood still. He could never mistake it. She smelled exactly like Eleanor. Exactly like Eleanor, he was sure of it. Come to think of it, her hair was also gray and her eyes belonged to Eleanor. If he wasn't hallucinating, then he was running mad. He closed his eyes and turned around. "I need to get them now. Mia, nice, go find Harry. Look for him, I didn't say you should hide and seek…" he heard the voice and the clacking sounds of shoes coming his way. He quickly hid in a corner.The fact that he was there wasn't the probl

    Writer's POV*Five years later*"Brother, look at this model. She also sent you a message and you still haven't replied. Why? Do you want to live like this forever? This isn't some Disney movie. I am married and you are not. People are talking," Nikki protested to her brother who was packing his bags. He wasn't paying attention to Nikki and he wasn't interested in doing so. "Brothers I am talking to you, do not ignore me.""Nikki. People are different. Some people love marriages…some don't. I don't. I need to get to the office. I am trying to lead by example."Nikki pursed her lips. "Is this because of Eleanor? Are you still punishing yourself for that? You know you deserve it but this is enough. It's been five years and you are not getting any younger. You need to find someone to get married to and have kids. Who would take care of your company when you are gone?"Harrison was dressed and tired of Nikki. He would do anything to drive her out of his house but he didn't want to push h

    Writer's POVHarrison walked around the house, screaming and throwing things apart. How would he explain it to her? She wouldn't even want to hear him out. He was done. He had to accept the fact that he would never have her again. There was no magic for him to perform.*Two hours earlier*Harrison was mild and sad, wondering and planning how he was going to meet Eleanor and get the shit out of her. Someone knocked on his door. The guards opened. For a moment he thought it was going to be Eleanor but instead, it was her friend, Candy.He knew Candy was Eleanor's friend so he thought it would be easy if he sent Candy to Eleanor so that Eleanor would at least mind meeting him."Good morning Mr. Tolstoy. How are you?" Of course, he wasn't fine. All he wanted at the moment was to see Eleanor. "I am fine," he lied. "Eleanor isn't here at the moment and Jay already took his leave. I thought he told you all that?""Oh, dear. I wasn't sure about what he was telling me on the phone and why Elea

Her destination was a place she didn't want to visit but Emil just reminded her how brutally she was of that place. She entered Tolstoy's apartment. The guards didn't stop her. Every clicking sound of her shoes emitted danger. She wasn't smiling. She went in and went straight to the stables. She didn't care if Harrison was home or not. The moment she saw Magny, the horse neighed happily. I hadn't seen her for a long time. She smiled. At least something was still capable of making her smile. She related the horse. She was taking him home. She found the men that used to be there. They already knew her face so they let her be. Perhaps they had no idea Hendrix was in prison. She caressed the horse and calmed it down. It must have been so lonely staying there alone. There was no Hendrix to take care of him so she was goi

He understood why Eleanor had to take a break."You are trouble, Emil. If I were Eleanor, I would throw you something hard in the face. you would wonder why I did that to you.

He followed Mother back to the sitting room. He just wanted to have some time with her. Emil didn't lie about the way she had been approaching and referring to him.
